At first, followers of Christ were called people of the Way.
Christians - Acts 11:26 says that followers of Christ were first called Christians at Antioch.
Saints - the word saint simply means set apart. There are about 60 times where Christians are called saints or "holy ones" including Ephesians 1:1; Acts 9:32; Acts 26:10 and Romans 1:7. This shows that God decides who is a saint and not some group of people.
Priests - Since we have the ability to talk directly to God, Revelation 1:6;5:10 says that we are now priests to God. All those who believed Him as their personal Lord and Savior, those who repented and live their lives consistent with God's Word- The Holy Bible.
Disciples or Christians are followers of Jesus.
